These are Nintendo signs I got off ebay, the first one (no red) is 2 years old, and the red one is one year old. The thing is, the bulbs burn out and they are some custom size which I cannot find. But if you can find the right bulbs, then you can have both signs for only $6! (+S&H) (They are $30 a piece on Ebay)


They are made out of hard acrylic (The same as windows in computer cases) and can take a beating. They are both dirty. (I really don't know how to clean acrylic) so that'll be up to you.

The first one (clear) lights up pink and is very awesome. The second one just lights up white and feels like a street light outside your window.

They make EXCELLENT night lights, so you can navigate your room in the dark. (Pink being the better one) They are completely silent and only take up 8 watts. One bulb lasts approx one year of 24/7 use.

They both come with a chain for hanging. These are light enough that you can hang them off a simple tack in the wall.

I included the ruler and gamecube in the pics so you can understand how big these are.

EDIT: I cannot give you info about what type or size bulbs they are, becuase the little sticker is in Chinese or something. You will have to buy the items, then take the bulbs to whatever light store and see if you can find a match.

Attached is what they look like when plugged in. (when you replace the bulbs that is) :download:

Here is the bulb from the pink one. As you can see, it is a very small florescent bulb. It is smaller than the American standard small, which is T5 or something.

I would totally buy them if they had the bulbs. Also being in Australia probably wouldnt make it worth it.

You could always replace the bulb with a white cold cathode 12", They seem to be the same length.

Pick a service (DHL, UPS, etc) and PM me your city and zip and I can give you a quote.

The package only weighs 3.5 pounds, so it'll probably be little more than $10

Awesome, but dammit, today was trash day and I don't have any newspaper to wrap them with. Well, not like packing it now instead of tomorrow morning will matter.

You'll probably get them the 14th of this month. No rush, you can't turn them on when you get them anyways.

They have been sent. And Now I have MY new one. It's the same as the red oval one, but instead of a white light, it's blue! I told the dude I wanted the red oval blue as well, which he said he'd do, but didn't, that racist.
